Não Sou Nada (2023): Uma análise das representações mediáticas
Abstract
The current research focused on collating national and international news related to the film Não Sou Nada – The Nothingness Club, by Portuguese filmmaker Edgar Pêra, with a time frame from July 2020 to April 2024. According to the initial motivation, we sought to understand, through the film, what kind of representations the media devoted to Fernando Pessoa and Edgar Pêra. There was also an interest in understanding the place the film would occupy in the public sphere, through the mediation of the mass media. The subsequent analysis of the data provided some answers to the questions raised and led us to other kinds of questions that were not initially anticipated. Thus, we have found that the majority of news information disseminated in Portugal is characterized by the uncritical reproduction of press releases or information from news agencies. Beyond the evidence listed, in this review we have tried to question the role of the media in the construction of new socio-cultural realities.
